Darth Vader

Now I have never been a big Star Wars fan, but I do know quite a bit about it because when I first started selling collectibles on eBay, Star Wars was one of the most profitable lines for awhile. Of course my wife could never understand why anyone would have interest in “such ugly characters.”

Of course, when the email arrived and the Hello Kitty Darth Vader revealed herself, my wife instantly had good things to say about Star Wars. “Why doesn’t everyone dress like that – it makes something that’s ugly look so much cuter! I would even go to one of those conventions if I could wear that.”

I explained that this was another photoshop joke and that nobody really made it. I explained that every Star Wars fan would probably roll over in their grave at the sight of this piece of sacrilege if it were true. None of this common sense fazed her.

This is another one of the ever present dangers of living in Hello Kitty Hell among the fanatics – no matter how bizarre or wrong something is, they can only see “cute” when Hello Kitty is placed on it. I’m just thankful that there are no more movies coming out because she would likely make a costume like that and attend…

So, I have this picture on my monitor and my husband, who is playing video games in the background says, “hey, what is that? A white Darth Vader? Cool! When I explained that it was a Hello Kitty Darth, expecting him to be instantly uninterested, he goes, “Even better. Send me that link, will ya!” Apparently, he has come up with a heretofor unknown use for a Hello Kitty Darth Vader costume.

Ohhh how we wish that was a photochop.
I’ve seen too many in the series of pics for them to all be photoshop while perusing the images from A-Kon a friend attended. Worse of all, that Vader was also recently parading around on live tv at the 30th anniversary of Star Wars on G4tv.
I think this and the Hello Klingon was done for the same reason one comic shop owner attends A-kon as SAILOR OGRE if he does not recieve enough charity donations in the store; Squick Factor. Yes, an elaborate joke to watch the masses squirm, -even within your own fandom.
Several ladies I’ve heard of even turns it to their own advantage. In Warhammer war gaming, one lady converted her most deadly war-robot to a HELLo Kitty themed fiend, drawing all the firepower her opponents can rain down on that unit only. By the time the robot is finally, mercifully, destroyed, the opponent’s troops are surrounded and getting ripped up by her troops. This has inspired a lady friend in Dallas to turn her deadliest monster in her Tyranid army into a pikachu for the same advantage…

I fear this is not a joke. Or if it is they did a good job. I recognize the background on this one (I think) as being the second floor at gen-con in Indianapolis. View through the window I am pretty sure is the hotel (Hyatt) across from the convention center).

This reminds me of a story… I love hello kitty and my boyfriend doesn’t. But he does like Halo. So I made him a HALO KITTY I drew Master Chief’s helmet on hello kitty’s body and put a big boy on it and I make him keep it in his binder and walk around school with it.

HAHAHAHAHAHHAHAH!!! that is awesome!! omg… i love these pictures… i believe this one is real guys… and i don’t think it was at a star wars convention.. i think it may have been an anime convention of some sort… possibly anime expo in la… that seems like the most likely place you would find it…. they have man faye! Last year at oakon i met a guy decked from head to toe in hello kitty stuff… she was hello kitty overload… i couldn’t believe that was her costume the whole weekend. lost of colors and kitty. *shivers*

that aint photoshopped, well it is really, that was at a bristol convention centre, that was it, exacly how it is there, except the hello kitty symbol, the original symbol was pink ribbon for cancer care. luke iam your mother

WOW I don’t know much about Star Wars either and my friend is a huge fan of Star Wars and I’m sure when she sees this (because I WILL show it to her) she will freak out in either a) a good way and bust out laughing or b) a bad way and curse me for ever liking Hello Kitty and showing this to her! 😛

Wow…
That’s one of the most pathetic things I’ve ever seen.
And I’m a girl.
But it’s just disgusting.
Darth Vader Hello Kitty… what kind of pervert mind would come up with such a thing?
Your wife’s so funny, lol.
